At least it was just the tail light that got damaged. If you got your bummer or rear quarter panel, it would be much more expensive to get fixed.

At least it was just the light and not the bumper or fender.

Yea that stinks, but at least it was the light and not something that dented the bumper or fender, or scrathced paint. A light can be replaced easily, and pretty cheap. You can replace it and pretend it never happend. LOL.
